Schedule Delay #1
When I first started planning this store, I had selected November 1 as an opening date. As things are picking up, I realize that it would be a TIGHT SQUEEZE to open by Nov 1. Once I sign my lease - which will probably be this week - the builder needs 3 weeks to finish the space. Then, I have 60 days from that point to finish my build-out. Being that the store is all about DIY, and I’m on a budget, hubby and I plan to do as much of the buildout ourselves as possible. WOW, what we’ve gotten ourselves into! So, if we can get into the space by the end of October, we’ll have to work night and day to get things done before the end of the year.
I’ll gladly accept lunch deliveries and volunteers during this time! I have a feeling that the store will literally be my home for a while.
On another note, since things have picked up lately - both with the store and with the addition of some new clients and projects - I once again feel as behind as ever. I’m looking at other craft and photography sites and envying all of the people who have time to do their hobby and enjoy it. The grass is always greener, right?
